It all started by visiting a local fast food place called Murphy's a few times in the early morning for a quick bite and coffee. Each time there, was a Spanish speaking lady that caught my eye. She was pleasant looking and always friendly.
One day working late into the evening, I needed to get dinner before going home. I decided to stop by the Murphy's for something. To my surprise she was there. As I sat there eating, I noticed her behind the counter. She looked somehow different than before. I must have stared at her for just a moment to long, because she noticed me and came over to my table and asked if everything was Ok.
I told her yes it was, and apologized for staring at her. She smiled and said that it was Ok, and said it was nice to be noticed. It was late, I finished my dinner and headed home. On the drive home I could not get her out of my mind. Her smile, her hair, her body...I started to fantasize about being with her and playing with her.
A few days later I went to Murphy's again very early, just as they opened. She was there. Only two other people were in the place. I ordered some coffee and sat down. A minute later she brings my coffee to me. A pleasant good morning with a Mexican accent and asks if she can sit down for a minute. I said please. The conversation was a minute of small talk that was followed with an admission on her part.
She had noticed me looking at her every time I came into the place. She said that she liked the attention and wondered why. I told her she was a beautiful women and was a very pleasant person. At that very moment her beautiful big eyes filled with tears. I asked her if she was Ok. She shook her head no. She told me that her life was less than she wanted. She was married and her husband was an uncaring selfish man.
I could see the pain in her face as she described her marriage of ten years. She being the one to always work. Everything benefiting only her husband. I felt bad for her and did not know what to say. Just then a voice called out her name and she was needed in the back.
I left there thinking most of the day about her. How could such a beautiful women be in such a situation.
I went to the restaurant early again the next morning, sure enough she was there. I ordered some coffee and sat down.
This time another person brought me my coffee. I sat there for the longest time wondering if she would come over. As I was getting ready to leave, I saw her wave to me. At least an enthusiastic wave I thought.
